I withdrew from Gonzaga University at age 20 to pursue work in a digital marketing company

After 18 months I became the CEO of this multi-million dollar digital marketing company.

After a short time, I resigned and decided to explore future work and a life of less obligation.

I love trying and sampling new things.

I love reading and learning.

I have a wonderfully supportive family.

I have a kick-ass, brilliant girlfriend.

These are all things that may identify me, but I’m trying to refrain from identifying with too many of them. I’m practicing keeping my identity small.

There are a few that I will always identify as; loving partner, son, brother and student, while others I will consider just phases of my life; CEO, college student, Spokanite, etc.

My intent here at Coryames.com is to share more of my writing, thinking and what it is that I’m working on, as I’m going through “trying on” different identities and experiences (work, travel, learning), while seeking permanence and growth in my cemented identities and experiences (relationships, friendships, student).
